Well with officer involved shootings I can kind of understand the passive perspective, seeing as cops are not really acting on their own accord.

I believe the new in vogue term is "Latine"

"Won't someone censor this violent movie it might influence my kids" is a wont someone please think of the children argument

Archiving the actions of proven pedophiles in the media and popular culture is not, that is a noble service

Well the actual reason is of course that the people involved with this movement do not want their threads read. It shines a light on everything shady, dishonest and bad they have done, social media influencers want to appear holy as a saint in front of their audience as it increases their influence, so telling your entire audience to engage with a thread that makes you look like a horrible person is a bad move.

Another big reason is to inhibit the competition, this is often seen in video game servers DDoS attacking each other in order to get people to switch

Speech can be violence. This can for instance be seen on the very website we are discussing.

I think you could argue the same took place during COVID, what with mask mandates, essentially forced vaccinations and businesses being forced closed.

The problem with e-bikes is that they have been hampered down so hard by regulations.

No throttle, only pedal assist, 250w motors maximum and no assist over 25km/h turns it from the perfect future-proof vehicle for inner-city use and suburban commuting into a weird hybrid that isn't fast enough to replace a light road bike, But also not strong enough to haul multiple saddlebags full of groceries up hills without breaking a sweat.

God no, I'm no crypto-nut don't get me wrong.

Propping up a bubble destined to pop is bad too, so why get involved?

The people who are hurt by dips whether artificial or not are invariably going to be new, small time investors.

Even if you think they shouldn't gamble with their money I find it hard to argue there was no damage done.

Manipulated the price of certain crypto, and monopolized e-commerce.

This honestly speaks more to the authors inability to organize.

I personally seek to intentionally stay away from walled-gardens, reduced reliance on huge corporations seems like a winning move in the long run.

afaik the only time you are really supposed to use uninitialized values is when you are planning on reading it in from some stream.

otherwise you should really avoid it.

I wish someone would make an extension that makes this a simple hover+keypress instead of multiple clicks. As it stands right now it is too much of a hassle to manually click 2 times per video. But if you do not then youtube will continue to plaster that video on your homescreen for weeks.

Nitpick away, when I am ignorant I'd rather be told than stay ignorant.

I wholeheartedly think http/s is irreparably damaged, for example it is impossible to find good information on search engines, even the free ones like Searx. If you are able to find a website you can bet it includes 10MiB of trackers and ads.

Hopefully someone writes a better protocol with no third party cookies and heavily restricted javascript.

They already have, the internet is a mess.

Every website you visit wants more and more of your data. Facebook played a huge role in making this level of data sharing widespread.

Well the sender, receiver and the amounts are all hidden, so yes.

I should still note that it isn't a magic bullet, and that things you do in connection to the monero blockchain can obviously still give the authorities an idea of what you are doing.

Monero is.

I don't reckon he is honestly, deindexing and blocking piracy sites is just another facet of the same censorious tendencies.
